Qvale Mangusta

The Qvale Mangusta is a sports car produced in limited numbers in Italy by the automaker Qvale between 2000 and 2002. During development and very early production, it was badged as the De Tomaso Biguá. After this, other early production cars were badged as the De Tomaso Mangusta (named for the car originally built between 1967 and 1971) before De Tomaso became disassociated from the project and all subsequent cars received Qvale nameplates.

The Mangusta uses a front mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout, and is powered by a Ford 4.6L DOHC V8. It was offered with either a BorgWarner T45 5-speed manual gearbox or a 4-speed automatic.
